Navigating theWeb
Yourphone displays the current status of yourdata
connection through indicatoricons at the top of the
screen.The following symbols are used:
Navigating through menus and websites during a data
session is easy once you’ve learned a few basics. Here
are some tips forgetting around:
Yourphone is on and is connected to the Sprint
3G data network.When the arrows are animated,
data is being transferred (forexample, when you
are opening aWeb page)and you cannot receive
calls.When the arrows are white, you are
connected to the network but data is not currently
being transferred (forexample, when you are
viewing aWeb page that is completely open), and
you can receive calls.
Softkeys
During a data session, the bottom line of yourphone’s
display contains one ormore softkeys.These keys are
shortcut controls fornavigating around theWeb, and
they correspond to the softkeys directly below the
phone’s display screen.

These ratings are not guarantees. Results will vary depending
on the user’s hearing device and individual type and degree of
hearing loss. If a hearing device is particularly vulnerable to
interference noise; even a phone with a higherrating may still
cause unacceptable noise levels in the hearing device.Trying
out the phone with yourhearing device is the best way to
evaluate it foryourpersonal needs.
Thus, if you pairan M3 hearing aid with an M3 phone, you will
have a combined rating of six for“excellent use.”This is
synonymous forTratings.
Sprint furthersuggests you experiment with multiple phones
(even those not labeled M3/T3 orM4/T4)while in the store to
find the one that works best with yourhearing aid device. Should
you experience interference orfind the quality of service
unsatisfactory afterpurchasing yourphone, promptly return it to
the store within 30 days of purchase.With the Sprint 30-day
Risk-Free Guarantee, you may return the phone within 30 days
of purchase fora full refund. More information about hearing aid
compatibility may be found at: www.fcc.gov, www.fda.gov, and
www.accesswireless.org.
M-Ratings: Phones rated M3 orM4 meet FCC requirements for
hearing aid compatibility and are likely to generate less
interference to hearing devices than unrated phones. (M4 is the
better/higherof the two ratings.)
T-Ratings: Phones ratedT3 orT4 meet FCC requirements and
are likely to be more usable with a hearing device’s telecoil (“T
Switch”or“Telephone Switch”)than unrated phones. (T4 is the
better/higherof the two ratings. Note that not all hearing devices
have telecoils in them.)

RadioFrequency(RF)Energy
UnderstandingHowYourPhoneOperates
Yourphone is basically a radio transmitterand receiver.When it’s
turned on, it receives and transmits radio frequency (RF)signals.
When you use yourphone, the system handling yourcall
controls the powerlevel.This powercan range from 0.006 watt to
0.2 watt in digital mode.
Formore information about RFexposure, visit the FCC website at
www.fcc.gov.
SpecificAbsorptionRates(SAR)forWireless
Phones
The SAR is a value that corresponds to the relative amount of RF
energy absorbed in the head of a userof a wireless handset.
KnowingRadioFrequencySafety
The design of yourphone complies with updated NCRP
standards described below.
In 1991–92, the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers
(IEEE)and theAmerican National Standards Institute (ANSI)
joined in updatingANSI’s 1982 standard forsafety levels with
respect to human exposure to RFsignals. More than 120
scientists, engineers and physicians from universities,
government health agencies and industries developed this
updated standard afterreviewing the available body of research.
In 1993, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC)
adopted this updated standard in a regulation. InAugust 1996,
the FCC adopted hybrid standard consisting of the existing
ANSI/IEEEstandard and the guidelines published by the
National Council of Radiation Protection and Measurements
(NCRP).
The SAR value of a phone is the result of an extensive testing,
measuring and calculation process. It does not represent how
much RFthe phone emits. All phone models are tested at their
highest value in strict laboratory settings. But when in operation,
the SAR of a phone can be substantially less than the level
reported to the FCC.This is because of a variety of factors
including its proximity to a base station antenna, phone design
and otherfactors.What is important to rememberis that each
phone meets strict federal guidelines.Variations in SARs do not
represent a variation in safety.
All phones must meet the federal standard, which incorporates
a substantial margin of safety. As stated above, variations in SAR
values between different model phones do not mean variations
